Raphaël Varane arrived at Manchester United in 2021, after ten years at Real Madrid, with whom he won everything. But his adventure at Old Trafford doesn’t really go as planned. At the end of his contract with the Red Devils at the end of the season, the French world champion could well put an end to his Mancunian adventure. Two Saudi clubs are ready to jump at the opportunity.
Varane in Saudi Arabia?
Indeed, according to information from the journalist Ben Jacobs, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad could take action to get their hands on Raphaël Varane. Manchester United are not expected to activate the Frenchman’s one-season contract extension. And while the entourage of the 2018 world champion affirms that a departure to Saudi Arabia is not on the cards, the two Saudi teams believe in their chances of recruiting the former Real Madrid player.
Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad would like to continue their progress by recruiting Raphaël Varane, slightly more comfortable in recent weeks under the orders of Erik ten Hag. If he chooses between these two destinations, the Frenchman will not really be disoriented, since he will meet old faces. At Al-Nassr, he will notably meet Cristiano Ronaldo or Alex Telles, his former teammates, or even Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kanté, whom he worked with at Real Madrid or in the French team. If he were to stay at Manchester United, the former Lensois would have to make a big financial effort to sign a cheap contract.
